Adjective[edit]
active solar (not comparable)
- Making indirect use of solar energy by first converting it to another form (e.g. by using solar panels).
- 1997, James Kachadorian, The Passive Solar House:
- By contrast, an active solar collector is an ancillary system; instead of incorporating heat collection, storage, and release into the structure of the building, active systems are made up of devices attached to the structure.
